Drescription
Rather than drain away the flavorful oil packed with the sardines, we stir it into the pasta along with the fish. Look for brands with the blue Marine Stewardship Council logo. Buying sardines with this certification ensures they're sourced from fisheries that keep fish populations and environmental impact in mind.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces whole-wheat linguine
- 1 (4 ounce) can oil-packed boneless, skinless sardines
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 large cloves garlic, grated
- 5 jarred hot cherry peppers, seeded and coarsely chopped
- ½ cup chopped fresh parsley
Directions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package directions. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain the pasta and set aside; wipe the pot dry.
- Meanwhile, drain sardines, reserving the oil. Halve the sardines lengthwise.
- Add olive oil to the pot and heat over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add cherry peppers and the sardines and their oil; cook for 1 minute. Return the pasta to the pot, along with the reserved pasta water. Cook, tossing, until the water is mostly absorbed, about 1 minute. Add parsley and toss to combine.
